Abstract
A webbing insertion member for a seat belt is formed of a body having a through opening for allowing a webbing to pass therethrough, a slide portion formed on at least one side of the through opening to substantially contact the webbing, and a friction reducing material formed on the slide portion of the through opening for allowing the webbing to slide easily. Thus, efficiency of sliding of the webbing is improved significantly, to thereby reduce the failure of winding of the webbing into a retractor and facilitate withdrawal and winding of the webbing.
